基于内贴应变片的钢筋与钢纤维混凝土局部黏结试件的拉拔试验,研究钢筋与不同强度钢纤维混凝土的黏结性能。通过对实测钢筋应变的分析,建立了以三次多项式表达的黏结应力分布函数,得到了各级荷载作用下钢筋与钢纤维混凝土黏结应力和相对滑移沿黏结区段的分布,进一步分析了钢纤维和混凝土强度对黏结性能的影响。结果表明,随钢纤维的体积率和混凝土强度的增大,黏结试件加载端附近的黏结应力提高,黏结应力极值总体向加载端靠拢;同时,加载端与自由端的滑移减小。最后,提出了能够较好反映钢筋与钢纤维混凝土受力过程的黏结-滑移关系模型。     

Acoustic emission characterization of damage in short hemp‐fiber‐reinforced polypropylene composites

This article aims at investigating the effects of hygrothermal aging on the damage mechanisms of short white Hemp Fiber Reinforced Polypropylene (HFRP) composites with various fiber contents (10, 20, 30, and 40 wt%). Injected molded specimens were subjected to hygrothermal aging with a relative humidity of 80% and two temperatures, 25 and 50°C. The water absorption and its effect on tensile properties of HFRP composites were investigated. The Acoustic Emission (AE) technique combined with scanning electron microscopy observations was used to identify microstructural damage events leading to overall failure of the HFRP composites. This identification according to hemp‐fiber content and hygrothermal aging was made with an unsupervised method based on a statistical multi‐variable analysis (k‐means algorithm). The AE results indicate that the quality of fiber‐matrix interface plays a major role in the damage process of HFRP composites, shown by the number of AE signals induced by the interface failure and their amplitude ranges.

Investigation of Crosstalk and Coupling Effects of Incident Plane Waves in Orthogonal Microstrips in High-Speed Integrated Circuits Using Full-Wave and Quasi-Static Methods

The crosstalk and coupling of the external fields on orthogonal microstrip transmission lines in different layers have significant effects on signal quality in MMIC and PCBs. In this paper the crosstalk is analyzed in detail using both full-wave and quasi-static methods. The used full wave method is mixed potential integral equation method of moment (MPIEMoM). Because of the weak coupling between lines, the effect of the incident plane-wave is studied by applying transmission line theory in a scattered voltage formulation uses quasi-TEM propagation model for each interconnection and the exact distribution of the incident electric field within the layers. Afterward, by using the predetermined lumped circuit model of the cross-region, the effect of coupling between two lines is calculated and then applied to terminal voltages in 1–20 GHz frequency range which results in the final terminal voltages.     

Simultaneous Voltammetric Determination of Synthetic Colorants in Foods Using a Magnetic Core–Shell Fe<Subscript>3</Subscript>O<Subscript>4</Subscript>@SiO<Subscript>2</Subscript>/MWCNTs Nanocomposite Modified Carbon Paste Electrode

This paper reports the production of a novel magnetic nanocomposite based on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) decorated with magnetic core–shell Fe₃O₄@SiO₂ nanoparticles which were used to fabricate a modified carbon paste electrode (Fe₃O₄@SiO₂/MWCNT-CPE). The Fe₃O₄@SiO₂/MWCNT-CPE was investigated for the simultaneous determination of sunset yellow (SY) and tartrazine (TT) in 0.1 mol/L phosphate buffer solution (pH 6.0) using square wave voltammetry (SWV). The synthesized nanocomposite was characterized by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The proposed electrode exhibits linear ranges of 0.5–100 μmol/L SY and TT with detection limits of 0.05 and 0.04 μmol/L for SY and TT, respectively. The novel proposed voltammetric method was successfully applied in the simultaneous determination of SY and TT in food products, with results similar to those obtained using a HPLC method at 95 % confidence level.

Constrained grinding optimization for time,cost, and surface roughness using NSGA-II

Selection of parameters in machining process significantly affects quality, productivity, and cost of a component. This paper presents an optimization procedure to determine the optimal values of wheel speed, workpiece speed, and depth of cut in a grinding process considering certain grinding conditions. Experimental studies have been carried out to obtain optimum conditions. Mathematical models have also been developed for estimating the surface roughness based on experimental investigations. A non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA II) is then used to solve this multi-objective optimization problem. The objectives under investigation in this study are surface finish, total grinding time, and production cost subjected to the constraints of production rate and wheel wear parameters. The Pareto-optimal fronts provide a wide range of trade-off operating conditions which an appropriate operating point can be selected by a decision maker. The results show the proposed algorithm demonstrates applicability of machining optimization considering conflicting objectives.     

Power Sharing Improvement in Standalone Microgrids with Decentralized Control Strategy

Abstract—This article proposes a method that enables ideal sharing of reactive power among converter-based micro-sources in a microgrid with a decentralized control strategy. Power sharing must be properly performed among micro-sources to avoid circulating currents or overloading. Using conventional droop characteristics to achieve power sharing is not satisfactory, as system asymmetry will greatly impact the quality of sharing. In the proposed method, droop characteristic parameters are modified upon a change in system operating point such that ideal sharing takes place after the modification process. Simulation results are presented to show the validity of analysis.     

Control Optimization of a Slotted Switched Reluctance Generator for High-torque Applications

This article describes the control optimization of a slotted switched reluctance generator for low-speed applications. The machine is simulated with the finite-element method. The turn-off and turn-on angles are optimized by means of a genetic algorithm to maximize the output power and minimize the torque ripple. First, these two criteria are optimized separately with a mono-objective genetic algorithm, and then a multi-objective Pareto genetic algorithm is used. An analysis of optimized parameters and resulting current waveforms is also performed. Experimental results based on a 6/4 switched reluctance generator are also presented.     

Optimization of Output Power and Thermal Efficiency of Solar‐Dish Stirling Engine Using Finite Time Thermodynamic Analysis

This paper presents an investigation on finite time thermodynamic (FTT) evaluation of a solar‐dish Stirling heat engine. FTTs has been applied to determine the output power and the corresponding thermal efficiency, exergetic efficiency, and the rate of entropy generation of a solar Stirling system with a finite rate of heat transfer, regenerative heat loss, conductive thermal bridging loss, and finite regeneration process time. Further imperfect performance of the dish collector and convective/radiative heat transfer mechanisms in the hot end as well as the convective heat transfer in the heat sink of the engine are considered in the developed model. The output power of the engine is maximized while the highest temperature of the engine is considered as a design parameter. In addition, thermal efficiency, exergetic efficiency, and the rate of entropy generation corresponding to the optimum value of the output power is evaluated. Results imply that the optimized absorber temperature is some where between 850 K and 1000 K. Sensitivity of results against variations of the system parameters are studied in detail. The present analysis provides a good theoretical guidance for the designing of dish collectors and operating the Stirling heat engine system.
